Smell the GlovePIE - Wii guitar works with PC’s Frets on Fire
Rock on. Somebody’s cobbled together a GlovePIE script that lets you use the Wii version of the Guitar Hero III peripheral with the PC-based clone, Frets on Fire.
If you’ll recall, GlovePIE is the emulation software that allows a variety of input devices to work with Windows. You’ll have seen people using it to adapt the Wiimote and nunchuk before, using it to strum along successfully in some approximation of the instrument. Because the Wii guitar, is essentially a shell for the Wiimote, though, that makes it easier to go one step further and make the whole thing do the job as a dedicated peripheral on the PC.
Of course, you could always plug in a USB guitar from one of our rivals, but doing it this way might take some of the hurt out of Rock Band still not coming out on Wii.
